Hello,

There seems to be a display error in the sqlite documentation:
https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/sqlite3.html#f1

The footnote says "To get loadable extension support, you must pass –enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions to configure."
When actually the configure argument is --enable-etc. The double dash was substituted with a long dash (–), which breaks copy/paste for people. Here's an example: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/issues/1702.

That's right. Actually, the docs code contains two dashes but I think second of them is skipped in build process.

Might be good to wrap it as an inline markup.
